PVDF Syringe Filters, 3.0um, 25mm, Luer-Lok/Luer Slip, Nonsterile, 100/Pk SKU: SF18035

Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters - SF18035

Featuring 3.0µm hydrophobic PVDF membrane technology with 116psi burst pressure and polypropylene housing rated to 80°C, this medium-volume syringe filter delivers coarse prefiltration for aggressive organic solvents and chemically demanding samples. Exceptional chemical resistance accelerates sample processing when compatibility challenges limit filtration options. Combined with 72.5psi maximum operating pressure and temperature stability exceeding standard membrane materials, this nonsterile platform handles challenging applications where solvent resistance and mechanical strength drive equipment selection.

Key PVDF Membrane Characteristics

Hydrophobic 3.0µm PVDF membrane requires pre-wetting with alcohol before aqueous filtration, enabling specialized air venting and gas displacement applications unavailable with hydrophilic materials
Broad chemical compatibility withstands aggressive solvents including alcohols, ketones, halogenated hydrocarbons, and esters, supporting diverse sample preparation workflows when standard membranes degrade
Low protein binding affinity preserves biomolecule integrity during prefiltration, critical when your downstream analytical methods require maintaining accurate protein concentrations throughout sample processing
Extended temperature stability to 80°C accommodates warm sample filtration and high-temperature solvent applications that exceed limitations of temperature-sensitive membrane chemistries
Coarse 3.0µm pore structure removes large particulates from organic and aqueous samples, protecting downstream analytical equipment and finer filtration stages from premature fouling

Key Construction Characteristics

Robust polypropylene housing rated to 72.5psi and 80°C provides mechanical durability across demanding processing conditions, maintaining structural integrity when pressure and temperature stress equipment
Validated 116psi burst pressure ensures membrane integrity under high-pressure filtration operations, preventing catastrophic failure when your protocols demand reliable construction standards
Luer Lock and Luer Slip connections adapt to standard laboratory syringes without specialized fittings, simplifying integration into your existing sample preparation workflows
25mm diameter configuration supports medium-volume processing for 10-100ml samples, balancing throughput capacity with material economy in routine laboratory operations

When your laboratory processes chemically challenging samples where standard membranes fail, hydrophobic PVDF construction provides the solvent resistance and temperature stability you need. The 25mm platform with 116psi burst pressure and 80°C capability handles medium-volume samples reliably. Combined with coarse prefiltration efficiency and low protein binding characteristics, this configuration delivers your laboratory the operational confidence essential for organic solvent filtration, air venting applications, and chemically demanding sample preparation where membrane compatibility determines success.
